Amazing experience! Latitudes did not disappoint. We attended for a bachelorette dinner and the service was great from the beginning to the end. The ferry was on time. It was a smooth ride and the staff were friendly. We were seated immediately (party of 8) and our server was very knowledgeable and welcoming. The food was excellent. All of us enjoyed our meals. The soups were top tier. My friends said it was the best lobster bisque they ever had. The seafood was fresh and all the food was well seasoned. They have a full bar with a nice cocktail menu and wine selection. Even the dessert was delicious! Our server brought out a cheesecake with sparklers for the bride to be. It was very thoughtful! The best part of the experience was the sunset and the ambiance once the sun went down. I would highly recommend Latitudes for large groups or date nights. It was well worth the price. read more

Food: Appetizers were good (poke bowl decent, lobser bisque very good) but the entrees were somewhat awful (the pan seared snapper for $46 might be the most flavorless fish and rice with a 'citrus vin blanc' sauce that also tasted like nothing that I've ever had). Cocktails were decent but nothing spectacular. The sorbet flavor was basil and citrus, quite good as a palette cleanser. We were a big group of 9 and nobody was impressed or super satisfied with the food. Service: Friendly and attentive staff. Wait between courses was quite long. Ambiance: 10/10. Beautiful venue on an island that you have to take a ferry to. Ferry runs every 30 min, very punctual. Book dinner for sunset and make sure to request outdoor seating. Gorgeous photo opp. Would recommend coming here for apps/desserts/1 cocktail and lots of photos, but not worth the dinner cost. read more

We recently returned to Latitudes for the second time, and unfortunately, this visit didn't live up to our first. From the moment we checked in for the boat transfer, the experience felt off. The staff lacked the warmth and hospitality you'd expect from a place of this caliber. That tone continued with the hostess, and things didn't improve once we were seated. As a party of two, we were given a table that felt more like an afterthought--disappointing, especially when the ambiance and setting are such a big part of why people come here. The food was good, but not particularly memorable this time around. What stood out more was the service--our server was inattentive, and overall the experience felt disconnected rather than relaxed and enjoyable. Latitudes is still undeniably a special place, and the setting alone is hard to beat. But when you're paying premium prices, you expect premium service--and this time, it just wasn't there. read more

Beautiful spot to dine! Just wish they had fans on the patio for hot days with no breeze. Waiter was amazing and the staff very friendly. Food was delicious! Would have given 5-stars if they had fans and more shaded tables outside. It was incredibly hot and the umbrellas just weren't enough coverage for morning diners. The ferry ride is fun and only took 8min to get there. This place is worth the trip and the $ if you want to treat your family to an upscale food experience in the Keys. If the weather is nice/there's a breeze then sit outside. If it's hot sit indoors, you still get a nice view. read more

My birthday dinner here was a disappointment. I really don't understand what the hype is about. The best part is the view from the dock and the restaurant since it is on an island (Sunset Key) that you have to take a ferry to. We arrived for the ferry an hour prior to our reservation in hopes that we could start by having drinks at the bar - nope, not allowed. But we enjoyed the sunset from the dock anyways. The restaurant itself is beautifully appointed. The service is so so and the food is mid at best. There are much better dining options around Key West. I wouldn't waste my funds eating here again in the future. The consensus at the table for our group of 5 was that it was either overcooked or undercooked (such as with the "roasted" beets that were cold), and the flavors needed refinement. The service could have been better if the runner learned fine dining etiquette and didn't fling our plates on the table so hard and fast. Overall, I gave it two stars simply for the atmosphere. If you are coming for the food - don't waste your money. read more

Absolutely breath taking views and scenery. Service was solid, our water could have been more confident and louder when he spoke but did an excellent job overall. We were expecting a brunch menu when we arrived for an 11:45a Sunday meal but only lunch style serving was available. Our food did deliver high quality. read more

Absolutely ridiculous that this restaurant can call and make up some excuse to cancel your reservation 2 hours prior. Came over 1800 miles and made a reservation 2 months prior only to have it canceled with no explanation or at least one that made no sense. If I would have canceled within 48 hours they would have charged me $200 but they can cancel two hours prior to my reservation and give me nothing! read more

Embrace the experience! Because it truly is that and more. Take time to enjoy all the aspects of the going to Latitudes...from the transportation to and from, your views upon the arrival, your table, your view, your server, the drinks and the food. Enjoy it all! The transportation over is a well timed machine. The water taxi arrives on time and departs quickly after boarding. Your reservation time is your boarding time. Arrive 10 minutes prior to departure. The boat ride is a quick and enjoyable 5 minutes to Sunset Key. We were on the 4:45pm ferry and it is was a beautiful pre sunset cruise over watching the catamarans and sailboats making their way out to watch the sunset. It is kind of like arriving on Fantasy Island. Everyone gets off the boat and makes their way to the hostess where you are immediately seated. Your table preference is given in order of how far in advance your reservation was made. We had a beautiful 2 top outside for our Anniversary dinner. Our server was very attentive and reminded us to take our time and soak in the evening. She was very good at ensuring that the drinks, ordering our food, etc were paced out and not rushed. Embrace this! Enjoy the view and your company. She was kind enough to take our photo with the sunset and water in the background as well. Thank you! We enjoyed red wine which we selected from their wine book. I saw others with some beautiful cocktails and fun drinks so there are lots of options! We started with appetizers which included the Roasted Beets and the Tuna Poke. The roasted beets had a fantastic spicy goat cheese with a bit of pistachio crumble that was just right. The apple foam on top was unique and a delicious topper to the beets. The tuna poke was flavorful with coconut rice, avocado, wonton and more. For entrees we had the Pan Seared Yellowtail Snapper and my husband had the Seared Grouper. We both loved our entrees but thought that if we return we would do several appetizers instead. For dessert we had the crème brûlée. It was delivered with a sparkler for dramatic flair for our Anniversary. Nice touch! It was a great experience dining here and glad we did it! Dress code is upscale resort attire. read more

Okay the ambiance and restaurant are absolutely beautiful. The views are awesome! We got shrimp carbonara, yellow snapper and swordfish. The carbonara was the star of the show. Snapper was a bit disappointing because it was just lacking seasoning. Swordfish was good not amazing.. I think they were busy but the service was mid. Not what I expected with how expensive this place was. Not sure I'd put this on my list for next time. $300+ bill for 3 people. There are things missing for me with this place. It's all about the experience. read more

If you are looking to have a very special celebration or a special date, then you need to make a reservation to come here to this spectacular restaurant on Sunset Key island with ocean view and a gorgeous sunset while having a fabulous Latitudes dinner experience. You will be taken by boat to Sunset Key where you will be welcomed by a friendly professional staff to give you a day to remember whether it's for breakfast or dinner. We chose to make a dinner reservation outdoors and we were seated right by the water side with a great view of the sunset. It was so relaxing and peaceful. Our dinner consisted of Carribean Lobster Risotto and Shrimp Carbonara with cocktails. Absolutely delicious. It was a fabulous dinner in a beautiful restaurant with an incredible view! We hope to visit again soon. read more

One of the worst dining experiences in key west. Almost 3 hours to get our meals. We ordered fish that was over cooked and cold. The sides it came with also clumpy and cold. Honestly had several better meals in key west. Dont waste your time or your money. read more

The ferry was on time and staff were courteous. The ride was cool and comfortable. The restaurant is beautiful and situated to take the best advantage of the sunset. The staff were helpful and capable. The chef was excellent and altered a recipe to accommodate my health concerns. Our whole party was enthusiastic about the evening we spent at Latitudes. read more

Exceptional experience for us, the outdoor setting was beautiful, and we enjoyed the dishes we ordered. The braised beef was large enough so that there were leftovers for the next day, and it was delicious (even microwaved). The crab cake appetizer was good, but I'd probably go in a different direction next time, didn't feel like enough. The service was excellent, very attentive and accommodating. No complaints, this was a great dinner experience, will definitely return. read more

This restaurant is gorgeous, and the food was really good. We loved the atmosphere and overall had a great meal. The only reason I'm giving it fewer stars is because of how a pretty serious mistake was handled. One person in our group ordered a non-alcoholic mocktail, then ordered a second one and even confirmed with the waitress that it would also be non-alcoholic. Unfortunately, it came out with alcohol in it. The scary part is that she's allergic to alcohol, so this wasn't just a small mix-up. The manager's only solution was to take the drink off the bill. While we appreciated that, we expected a little more concern or effort to make things right considering how serious the mistake was. The food and the restaurant itself were great, but the way this situation was handled definitely left a bad impression. read more

We booked Latitudes for Valentine's Day expecting a high-end, special experience. Unfortunately, it fell well short--especially at $185 per person. The preset Valentine's menu (appetizer, entrée, dessert for $185pp) was not disclosed during the online reservation process. That lack of transparency was disappointing from the start. Appetizers were the highlight--both were very good, and the crab cake was excellent. After that, it went downhill. The grouper was overcooked and dry. The lobster and shrimp fettuccine had great flavor but was extremely skimpy--very little lobster and just three small shrimp. Dessert looked nice, but the chocolate-covered strawberries were made with unripe, flavorless berries. From a service standpoint, this is where things really missed the mark--especially for a restaurant positioned as "high-end." The experience begins with the boat ride over, and the host checking guests in was not welcoming. Additionally, despite having a reservation time that coincided with sunset, we were seated inside while multiple outdoor tables remained open. It seemed like a missed opportunity to prioritize seating guests with sunset reservations accordingly. After dinner, we sat at the bar for 10 minutes without any acknowledgment from the bartender and eventually left. One final frustration--the suggested tip amounts were calculated on the total including tax, rather than the pre-tax subtotal. Suggested gratuities should be based on the pre-tax amount, especially at this price point. The setting is beautiful, but that alone doesn't justify the cost. Overall, a very expensive and disappointing experience. read more

Having lunch or dinner here while you're in Key West or visiting sunset key is a must! It is beyond beautiful and the food and drinks were amazing. It is a short 5-10 minute easy boat ride over that is free for anyone with reservations. There was plenty of outdoor seating and our server was so friendly and helped make the experience perfect! read more

We went to Lattudes for lunch March 3rd. It is always fun to take a boat to a restaurant. The ferry to Sunset Island was on time and the crew was fabulous. The waiter came to our table promptly to take our drink order. He answered gluten free menu questions for my fiancee. Unfortunately he did not get my appetizer order correct. I ordered the cerviche, not lobster bisque. So I watched my fiancee eat while I waited over 20 minutes for my appetizer. Both of our appetizers were delicious. Hey, mistakes happen. Our entrees came after over 45 minutes. I wanted yellowtail snapper, but they were out of it so they substituted grouper. The grouper did not pair well with the sauce, but it was okay. My fiancée ordered the steak medium. it came well done. Zero pink even in the center. We sent it back to get what she ordered. 25 minutes later her medium steak arrived, perfectly cooked. I was done eating my entree way before her steak arrived. Sorry, but eating appetizers and entrees separately is not what I expect from a restaurant that is supposed to be highly rated. Our waiter was not attentive, rarely at our table. I will not mention his name, perhaps he is new and not experienced. I heard from others that the food was excellent, but the service was sub-par. I rarely post negative reviews, and it's possible that the lunch crew is their "second string." I think people should be aware that Lattitudes for lunch may not live up to your expectation. read more

We went to Latitudes for lunch on our latest trip to Key West. It was a great experience. You ABSOLUTELY need to make a reservation, or you can't board the ferry that takes you over to Sunset Key. You can't go over early. You are assigned a timeslot. The restaurant is at a very pricey resort, hence the rules. Once there, you are seated at the restaurant. The service is outstanding. Nothing more needs to be said about that. They are amazing at making you feel at home. No rush at all. The water views from the outside tables are amazing. It must be fantastic to stay at the actual resort, but it is out of my price range and I like staying in town anyway. The cocktails are innovative. We had a gin-based purple-colored cocktail, and it was amazing. So much so that each of us had two. We started with a lobster bisque that rivaled anything I have had in New England. My wife had a blackened grouper sandwich with fries. Doesn't sound like much, but the grouper was perfectly seasoned, the bread was freshly baked, and the fish was amazing. I had the same fish on a Caesar salad. It was one of the best Caesar salads I have ever had. You should try this for lunch. It is an amazingly relaxing time. read more

Latitudes on Sunset Key feels less like a meal and more like a beautiful escape across the water. I have visited for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and each has been wonderful in its own way. Breakfast is my favorite--the island is quiet, the morning serene, and time seems to loosen its grip. Lunch is bright and leisurely, while dinner unfolds with elegance and romance. The food is exceptional, the service gracious, and the setting unforgettable. Reserve early and request one of the few beachside tables if possible. Wherever you sit, you will be thoroughly spoiled--and when it is finally time to leave, you will almost certainly wish the experience could last a little longer. read more

Latitudes was highly recommended by both family and online reviews. I have to say it is an experience from the time you start to the end. You start with arriving at the boat dock behind the opal key resort and take a ferry over to sunset key. Depending on when you have booked your reservation depends on how good your seat is. I booked about 2 1/2 months prior to us coming so we were sat right by the waters edge. however I do recommend looking at the sunset times because i booked for a normal dinner time, but unfortunately, the sun was just setting however, the table was bright enough for us to still dine at. Our server, Kate was really great. We did ask for the Keylime martinis to be made as mock tails but unfortunately, due to the liquor for that they use they were unable to do that.Not her fault, it's just with the restaurant. I had the lobster risotto and my husband had a tenderloin. Both were very good. We also shared the Burrata and Caesar salad, which we both enjoyed. The only thing is that when I ordered the beignets, the dough inside was raw so I didn't send that back but my husband loved the Keylime pie. Kate was a sweet and attentive server! We would definitely come back but just make sure you know that this is an experience that you're going to need to set time aside for specially, with travel to and from the island. read more

There is a lot to say about Latitudes! Food great, service great, view amazing, selection great! Eduardo was our waiter tonight, probably the best waiter I ever had, attentive, genuine, funny, knowledgeable, on point. First visit here, would highly recommend and will be back if in Key West. Ordered special Stone Crab claws, phenomenal, as an appetizer. Ordered Lobster Bisque soup, Lobster Risotto and Shrimp Carbonara, all were phenomenal. Also ordered a bottle of wine, and key lime pie for dessert, when the check came, was pleasantly surprised by the price, less than expected, for such a phenomenal experience and meal.

Can't say enough about this restaurant. Food was very tasty. We had the wedge salad and it was plenty of food for two people. Then we tried the crispy salmon and lobster. Lobster with risotto was our favorite one. We had the best view and were able to see the sunset and take great pictures. Unfortunately it was pretty hot for about 1.5hrs before sunset and we didn't have shade but we had a great time. Our waiter Ivo was very attentive and kind, he offered a new table and checked on us very often. I highly recommend making reservations in advance and try their mojito! read more

There was plenty of hype about this restaurant but I found it to be just that. Mostly hype. Definitely make reservations well ahead of time. Ended up making a lunch reservation bc all the dinner reservations were all booked. We ordered the yellowtail snapper entree and the grouper sandwich. Started with the blue crab tostadas. The appetizer was tasty. Although it took 45 min if not more for it to come out. Not sure why but the waiter was apologetic. Anyway, I should have ordered a few more of those instead of the snapper. The food wasn't impressionable. I found it rather average. In fact Antonia's on Duval was a lot tastier. Perhaps the exclusivity of the sunset key is the appeal but that's more to say you did it than it is about the food. However, the staff was delightful. Warm and friendly. Would I return for dinner on my next visit? If someone in my group wanted to have the experience. Lastly, I checked the menu online which had panna cotta on the dessert menu but at the restaurant I was told it hasn't been on the menu so the online menu doesn't seem to reflect the actual menu in rotation. And the bar menu has different items than the menu at the table. Reservations are required to board the ferry from key west to sunset key. read more

Read this for a real review. Beautiful ferry ride, ocean ambience. Requested a window for the view and was told by the hostess seating us to go back again to ask the manager who stated "no". (This window view table wasn't EVER seated while we were dining) Food was a 3.5. Burrata appetizer had apple chunks instead of a blacked nectarine as described.The Brussel sprouts which came with the chicken were soggy. The shrimp pasta was too bacon forward. The ceasar salad had soggy lettuce. Was sat in the bar area but not allowed to order the bar bites. Server Edwardo abruptly stated "no" on many occasions when asked for my friend's to spit our tab for my birthday gift. We heard the server say aloud, "who do they think they are," to another server. We asked why they don't split he said "You are in the United States of America and you rode a boat to get here. " His actions made the table feel unsettled. We asked to speak to the manager and our server swooped in and said he spit it three ways. He was acting very strange yet rude. Sparkler on the dull crème brûlée was a nice touch for my 45th birthday celebration. However, friends did pay for the dessert just as an fyi. For the ratings, must be configured not from the dinner menu. It is the ambience to dine here not the food or service. Go for brunch or when Edwardo isn't working. Over promised and under delivered. Way better in KW. read more

Fantastic building with high-end materials and comfortable furnishings, probably the nicest place I've been in Florida. However, the experience needs improvement, starting with the table assignment process. Despite two opportunities to seat us by the ocean to enjoy the sunset, the staff failed to accommodate us. Instead, three ferry rides full of customers were seated in the far back and even the unlit interior. They were ~40% occupied. Just ridiculous. For clarity, I requested a waterfront sunset table and was told by the host that those tables were reserved for others who requested the same. Bizarre response. Ironically, those people never showed up, leaving all but one of the outdoor waterfront tables empty for two hours while we dined. The wagyu beef was marinated in an undisclosed teriyaki sauce, and the lobster was overcooked and mushy. While the service was excellent, the food quality was comparable to a Longhorn Steakhouse but with smaller portions. It was overpriced and underwhelming. Management needs to step it up here. read more
